Schlagerpinglan: Bortsett från de två missarna med bästa videon och sämst klädda artisten så kan jag bara konstatera att Magdi Rúzsa och Natalia Barbu verkar vara klart överskattade och att jag på något sätt missat tjusningen med Edsilia Rombleys “On top of the world“.

Roligt är det i alla fall med lite svenska erkännanden, även om the Arks utmärkelse kan diskuteras.

*Blåmarkeringarna ger inte en helt rättvis bild av mina åsikter. T.ex. så är “Molitva” blåmarkerad eftersom jag tycker att den är bäst av de åtta nominerade till Årets Låt. Hade jag fått välja fritt så hade däremot “Work your magic” blivit blå.

Min egen sammanställning av favoriter m.m. från 2007 dyker upp mot slutet av året.
